That's got to be at least MS 60+ R&B. There are a few fine cleaning lines in front of the face and a few rim marks, but it also had great detail in the band of the crown, mustache, beard and ear. Hardly any visible contacts on the Reverse too.
Lovely overall patina..

Great coin..IMHO..


Let's see how far off I am from the pros...

I agree with DEVLEC this coin looks MS to me. I would say MS 60 with scratches on the OBV. very nice coin

If this were in my collection, I'd mark it as an AU58++. I just have a problem with a scratched coin making it into the MS catigory. Super nice coin, just the same though. Thanks for sharing.
